My new release has a fun set of coffee and tea themed images, so I'll share a couple of those cards today! I made a matching set of 2 cards using a favorite print done with my Gelli Plate. The images are stamped with Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink onto clay-coated cardstock, then flicked with rubbing alcohol.

I stamped some of the other new designs into the background - here's a close up where you can see those images a little better.

I added some shading and highlighting to this silhouette image with Touch Twin Markers as well.

I used the same techniques and the other side of the background panel for the second card. The pendant is made with a decorative head pin and some glass beads.

You have taught me so many techniques that have taken my card making to the next level. These images are gorgeous on their own, but doing the alcohol flecks on them has enhanced them even more. Thanks for the chance to win.
